Crocodile Stitch Phone Case Pattern
Materials:
- Worsted weight yarn (in your desired color)
- Size H (5.0 mm) crochet hook
- Yarn needle
- Scissors
Abbreviations:
- ch = chain
- sc = single crochet
- dc = double crochet
- sk = skip
- st(s) = stitch(es)
Instructions:
Base:
- Start with a foundation chain of 16 plus 2 (for turning). You should have a total of 18 chains.
Row 1: 2. In the 3rd ch from the hook, make 1 dc. Skip the next ch, and in the next ch, make 1 dc. Repeat from * to * until the end of the row. 3. You should end up with 8 dc. Turn.
Row 2: 4. Ch 2 (counts as first dc), and in the first st (the top of the first dc from the previous row), make 1 dc. 5. In the next dc, create the Crocodile stitch: yarn over, insert into the stitch, complete 1 dc, leave 2 loops on the hook. Repeat this 4 more times in the same stitch so that you have 5 dc in the same stitch. Now pull through all 6 loops on your hook and chain 1 to close the stitch. 6. Skip the next dc and in the following dc, repeat the Crocodile stitch. 7. Continue this pattern across the row, ending with 1 dc in the last st. Turn.
Row 3: 8. Ch 2, then in the first dc (top of the first dc) make 1 dc. 9. In the next stitch (where you worked the chain of the Crocodile stitch in Row 2), make 1 dc. 10. Then in the next 5 dc of the Crocodile stitch, work another Crocodile stitch, chaining 1 to close. 11. Repeat this across the row, ending with 1 dc in the last stitch.
Rows 4 – 10: 12. Repeat Row 3 until you reach your desired height, usually around 10 rows or to fit your phone.
Finishing: 13. Once you have the desired height, you can create a flap: - Ch 1, and sc around the top edge of the case, placing 3 sc in each corner. 14. For the flap, ch 12, and turn your work. 15. Starting from the second ch, sc in each ch across for a total of 11 sc. Ch 1 and turn. Repeat this row for about 5-6 rows, or until the flap is long enough to tuck into the case when closed. 16. Finish off and weave in any loose ends.
Optional:
You can add a button or snap closure by sewing it onto the flap and the front of the case.
Notes:
- Feel free to customize your case by using different colors or adding embellishments like beads or crochet flowers!
- Make sure your phone fits the case before completing the flap.
